Hey everybody, This week I want to talk about Gus. You know Gus, he's a friend, he's a 'fun-guy'.
If you run into Gus at Bonnaroo, Be careful. He can party harder than you.
I was reminded of this just last night. He stopped by my house and offered to let me wear his cap. He's got a big head so you know, his cap was pretty big, too. Everything was going great, we were having a great time. Listening to music, bee-bopping around, and suddenly he smiled real big and just like that, pulled the rug out from underneath me. He had no apologies. In fact he laughed in my face. It felt like I had hit my head except there was no pain. Pinwheels behind the eyelids. The tile in the bathroom looked like one of those optical illusions where nothing is really moving, but everything looks like it is.
I cried out 'UNCLE' and had to lay down on the couch and as Gus partied on around me, without me, with me, without me.... I thought about the last time we hung out, at Roo 06 Moe/Sonic Youth. I thought to myself about how I had really wanted to see Sonic Youth but when I got there I had to throw my hands in the air and say 'damn you Gus! You can party harder than me!' and I had to lay down in the grass and take a Bonna-Nap and I missed one of the shows I was really looking forward to.
So there ya go. Tip of the week volume 8. Gus is a fun-guy to hang out with but be careful. If he offers his cap to wear be sure you're ready. You don't want to miss a favorite show just because he came around and wanted to party.

True that! Stay safe and use common sense when you're partying with the big dogs. Remember, you can always party with Gus but Bonnaroo is here for only 4 days.

Not sure if we're talking about the same Gus, but one time a Gus I know played a dirty trick on me. He made me think I shat all over myself. But eventually my friend told me he was just tricking me, and I had indeed NOT shat on myself.

Yes, I know this Gus you speak of. He has accompanied me to many, many shows at Roo. We always have a good time together. Except for this one time when I was hanging out with him outside of Roo and he had me convinced I was dying and caused me to freak the fvck out. We've reconciled since then though. Good guy.
Gus snuck up on me at 'roo 07, he made me miss Keller. He can be a fun guy, but sometimes he parties way to hard for me. The worst thing is how inconsistent he is, most times everything goes great, but then he sneaks up on you again pulling his old tricks. Personally I have started a relationship with two ultra cool chicks, Lucy and Molly since then Gus does not really come around much anymore, and if he does it is only for nostalgic value.

How is Lucy? Molly visited me last weekend... well I thought it was Molly, turned out to be one of her offspring.

Gus can do a whole hell of lot more than just party. Of course, Gus just might pull a few tricks on you to humble you if you think otherwise. Treat Gus with respect and he'll do the same.
took me a minute, but then I realized who Gus was. Had nothing but great times with just me and Gus, but just one time hanging with Gus and Lucy together was a but much. Their personalities and egos clashed and made for a crazy night(no regrets though).

My friend Gus and I hung out on Thursday night last year, we saw Dark Star and Lez Zeppelin together, every now and again I would feel where he had his tricks and when he was about pull his pranks, but I was able to dodge his traps. Sometimes you gotta keep your eyes open and try to get a feeling of when he will trick you. It works for me.

Ever since the first time Gus tricked me that I shat myself I haven't called him back. I kind of wanna hang out with him but I don't know how it would be hanging out with Gus+100k others at bonnaroo. Does anyone know if Gus is any better to hang out with after a few drinks?

Both you and gus will def. loosen up after a few drinks... You'll probably not notice him as much, but he'll still definitely be there.
Gus is a fun guy; he means well, but sometimes people don't take too kindly to him. He freaked me out a little bit one time when Jeepers Creepers 2 was on TV, and another time he socked me in the gut so hard that I threw up. But, all in all I really enjoy his company, and we will probably be hanging out again sometime in the not too distant future.

hahaha lol, Gus did that to my friends on the way to widespread this past october in atl. We stopped on the highway with him fucking flipping out completely embarrassed almost to tears. digging his hands through his pants on the side of the highway. tricky gus just made his ass sweat.

This same thing happened to me!! That darn Gus! I was laying in my bed with Gus and it felt like I had craped my pants, but I was too lazy to get up and check. So I just figured to myslef "well, I can't smell anything. So maybe since I can't smell it it didn't really happen."
Can someone please pm me or soemthing and tell me who these people are? I'm pretty sure I know who gus is but then I here that he has friends Lucy and Molly and I'm confused.
So I first met Gus at a Halloween party last year. So after dancing for 6 hours non stop(literally) with Gus. I was tired and wore out but Gus would not let me sleep. That is the only problem I had with him. Other than that I love Gus!
